ping works, ssh doesn't

EU-Admins-UNIX — Fri, 12 Oct 2012 07:57:45 GMT

I can ping from server A to server B, and vice versa.

I can ssh from server B to server A BUT cannot ssh from server A to server B

I can ssh from server A to servers C, D, E, etc........

Please see below:

root@serverA at /scratch/tariq/oracle =>ssh -v serverB

Any ideas?

This doesn't tell us anything since ssh also connects but then drops:

debug1: Connecting to serverB [172.20.0.12] port 22.
debug1: Connection established.

Can you look at syslog on server B? I'm not sure if using -vvv would give more useful info?

(I assume that 172.20.0.12 is your xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx?)

Thanks all, it's sorted.

I put these values in the /etc/rsolv.conf file:

retry 1
retrans 200

Thanks & Regards
